I bought a bottle of Natrol 5-http with a concentration of 50(?) per tablet. I took 2 that day and maybe should not have cuz I had taken a sjw in the am and at lunch. I took the http in the afternoon and then at dinner. Anyway woke up out of a sound sleep at like 5 in the morning cause i felt like I was burning up but like I came out of a deep sleep sitting straight up in my bad and that never happens to me. My Grandmother says she woke up with her heart pounding and sweating. My mother says that she really enjoyed 5-http and she noticed it really helped her mood while sjw nevber did anything for her. Just thought I'd share.

That happened to me with Natrol also, early in my therapy. I swithched brands to Nature's Way, and haven't had any side effects in over a year. But I don't take SJW just 5htp, Kava Kava, and B vitamins. From what I've read when you take SJW and 5HTP together you have to be careful of Serotonin Overload.

Dupont, are you very sensitive to drugs and meds. I seem to be sensitive to everything. How would you take the 5htp to keep from having the daytime drowsiness and fatigue. Ive tried it during the day and get a huge fire flush and weat. And very sleepy, but the sleepy part I have been battling with. I also get nauseau. Thanks and God Bless UniqueAngel.

I am sensitive to drugs, that is one of the reasons I stopped taking prescription antidepressants. I have to say I found a great brand and have stayed with that brand for the past 2 years. Nature's Way 5htp with b6 and c. It is enteric coated so you don't get the stomach upset because it isn't broken down until it gets into the small intestine. What I do in the morning is take the 5htp with a cup of coffee. If I drink one cup of coffee I don't get jittery or irritable from the caffeine or tired from the 5htp. Ever since I was a kid, I get tired around 3 pm, and it has been something I have had to battle with also, but I would rather be tired and happy rather than depressed.
Can you get Nature's way brand where you live? It might be worth it to try a brand that is enteric coated.
